For once, Jianchen became stern. He could tell that it was an extremely powerful Class 7 Magical Beast from the roar. It was at the Fifth Heavenly Layer of Saint Ruler at the very least.
"Why is there such a powerful magical beast here?" Jian Chen was secretly surprised. The magical beast that had roared out was clearly a member of the same clan or a senior of the Black Crow Beast King he had killed. He knew that he had angered the powerful Class 7 Magical Beast far away by killing the Class 6 Black Crow Beast King.
The Class 6 Radiant Saint Masters in the distance all became sheet-white. They became extremely frightened. The earth-shaking roar from before had already frightened them out of their wits. They were now filled with endless fear, causing their bodies to gently tremble and their legs to tremble.
"T- t- t- it must be a Class 7 Magical Beast. Let's go. Let's go. Why are we still staying here? Do we want to die?" A Class 6 Radiant Saint Master said with a trembling voice before immediately gathering the other Radiant Saint Masters to form a white cloud. They hurriedly stepped onto it and fled.
The other Radiant Saint Masters all returned to their senses. As soon as they thought about the terror of a Class 7 Magical Beast, they could not help but shiver inside. They no longer dared to stay there any longer, immediately fleeing as quickly as they could.
A cold light flashed through Jianchen's eyes as he watched them leave. He did not plan on letting them go. Although the existence of the Class 7 Magical Beast pressured Jianchen slightly, it was not as severe as the Class 6 Radiant Saint Masters.
However, just when Jianchen wanted to chase after them, the surviving Black Crows in the surroundings all roared out furiously. They all stared at Jianchen with bloodshot eyes and charged toward Jianchen as quickly as they could. Clearly, they wanted to avenge their dead Class 6 Magical Beast.
"Since you want to die so much, I'll fulfill your wish." Jianchen's eyes flashed with a strong murderous intent. The rain that filled the sky immediately condensed in front of him, and then shot towards the surrounding Black Crow Beasts like lightning.
A while later, when Jianchen had slaughtered all the black crow beasts, the Radiant Saint Masters had already fled. The corpses of the black crow beasts had piled up into a small hill on the ground below him. Blood flowed like a river, and the air was filled with the dazzling smell of blood.
Jianchen slowly dispersed the Radiant Saint Force before him. He glanced in the direction the Radiant Saint Masters had vanished in and gently said, "Count yourself lucky this time. If I see you again, I'll send you off."
Jianchen arrived before the corpse of the Class 6 Black Crow Beast King several dozen meters away. He condensed a Radiant Sword in his right hand and directly stabbed it into the Black Crow Beast King's body. He removed a fist-sized monster core from the corpse with great familiarity.
Jianchen finally smiled faintly as he looked at the Class 6 Monster Core in his hand. He had discovered a Class 6 Magical Beast hiding among the Black Crows long ago, and his objective had actually been the Class 6 Monster Core.
Basically all Class 6 Magical Beasts gathered in the depths of the Cross Mountains, which was why there were so few of them on the Tian Yuan Continent. As a result, Class 6 Monster Cores were extremely precious and rare, almost becoming a commodity that could not be bought even if one had the money.
"I wonder if Ming Dong has successfully broken through to Heaven Saint Master. If he has, he'll be able to use this Class 6 Monster Core," Jian Chen murmured to himself. Although he had quite a few Class 5 Monster Cores in his Space Ring, Class 5 Monster Cores were no longer of much use to Heaven Saint Masters. Only Class 6 Monster Cores would be of use to experts at that level of cultivation.
Soon after, Jianchen frowned slightly and became distressed. He murmured, "It's a pity that the Space Ring has been sealed by the power of the saint artifact here. I can't open it at all. Once the number of Class 6 Monster Cores increases, it'll be very difficult to carry them around." As soon as he said that, Jianchen seemed to have thought of something. His eyes suddenly lit up, "Since the Space Ring has been sealed by the power of the saint artifact, can I use the Artifact Spirit to undo the seal?"
Thinking up to there, Jianchen immediately became excited. He called out, "Is the Artifact Spirit here?"
"Exalted One, I'm here." As soon as Jianchen finished speaking, the Artifact Spirit's voice rang out by his ear. The white-robed middle-aged man had silently appeared by Jianchen's side.
"Artifact Spirit, can you undo the seal on my Space Ring?" Jianchen asked the Artifact Spirit. He was slightly excited inside.
Hearing that, the Artifact Spirit finally remembered that it had sealed Jianchen's Space Ring. Its face immediately changed and it said in panic, "Please don't be angry, exalted one. I didn't seal your Space Ring on purpose. I'll undo the seal right now." The Artifact Spirit immediately removed the seal on Jianchen's Space Ring.
Jianchen checked the Space Ring and found that the powerful energy that sealed the Space Ring had indeed disappeared. This made him immediately happy. In this way, wouldn't he be able to take out everything he had obtained in here? Even the problem of the Magic Core would be solved completely.
Jianchen immediately put the Class 6 Magic Core into the Space Ring. Then he looked at the middle-aged man and said, "Artifact Spirit, are there Class 7 Magical Beasts in this artifact space?"
The Artifact Spirit dared not ignore Jianchen's question. It immediately said, "Yes, exalted one. There are indeed many Class 7 Magical Beasts in this space. There are even a few Class 8 Magical Beasts."
"What? There are Class 8 Magical Beasts here?" Jianchen was shocked. He could no longer remain calm because Class 8 Magical Beasts were equivalent to the Holy Emperor. And from the Artifact Spirit's words, Jianchen could tell that there were more than one Class 8 Magical Beasts that were equivalent to the Holy Emperor. He found it hard to believe.
"How did those powerful Magical Beasts get in here?" Jianchen immediately asked. He was very curious about all of this.
"Exalted one, this artifact has existed for countless years. There were already some Magical Beasts in here before I gained intelligence. They lived here and cultivated here. As time passed, their strength would naturally increase. The Class 7 and Class 8 Magical Beasts now have their current strength after cultivating here for a very long time. They also have many descendants." The Artifact Spirit explained to Jianchen.
"Then will they attack the Radiant Saint Masters who are participating in the competition?" Jianchen asked.
"Supreme Venerable, those seventh and eighth rank Demonic Beasts have all been sealed by this lowly one. They won't be a threat to those contestants. Only when those contestants have completely left will those seals be released and their freedom be restored." The artifact spirit basically told Jian Chen everything he knew. He did not hide anything at all. As for the matter of sealing the magical beasts, this was something that the artifact spirit had reached an agreement with the past presidents long ago.
Jianchen secretly let out a sigh of relief. The huge roar from afar had indeed pressured him a little because Jianchen had already sensed the power of the Class 7 Black Crow. Even with his strength as a fighter, he might not be able to defeat it.
At this moment, a visible red gas suddenly drifted out from the blood on the ground and gathered towards Jianchen. In the end, it all entered the body of the White Tiger that was sleeping on Jianchen's shoulder.
Seeing this, Jianchen was stunned. Clearly, he did not understand what was going on.
The eyes of the Artifact Spirit flashed. It immediately stared at the White Tiger on Jianchen's shoulder and said, "Exalted one, the Magical Beast on your shoulder is not simple. It can actually absorb the essence hidden in the blood of the Magical Beasts and absorb it."
Jianchen immediately sensed it carefully. As expected, he sensed that the red gas drifting out from the blood actually contained traces of essence.
"The White Tiger is now on the verge of breaking through. Could it be that the essence in the blood of the Magical Beasts can help the White Tiger break through?" Jianchen understood very quickly. He could not help but feel excited.
"Exalted one, I can feel that after the Magical Beast on your shoulder absorbed the essence, it is actually strengthening at a very slow speed. If it absorbs enough essence, it will reach Class 6 in advance," the Artifact Spirit said.
The Artifact Spirit's words confirmed Jianchen's guess. Jianchen let the Artifact Spirit leave with a trace of excitement. He stood there quietly by himself and slowly waited for the White Tiger to absorb the essence floating out from the blood of the Magical Beasts.
Very quickly, the essence in the blood of the Class 4 Black Crow Beasts had been completely absorbed by the White Tiger. At this moment, suddenly, a red gas that was a hundred times stronger than before drifted over from not far away. It slowly entered the White Tiger's body and was absorbed by it.
This was the essence of the Class 6 Black Crow Beast King.
Jianchen could clearly feel that the essence of the Class 6 Magical Beast King was much stronger and purer than the essence of thousands of Class 4 Magical Beasts to the White Tiger.
"In order to help the White Tiger break through as soon as possible, it seems that I have to look for more Class 6 Magical Beasts," Jianchen muttered to himself.
After waiting for a while, when there was no more essence floating out, Jianchen left the place. At the same time, he used his warrior's strength to take away all the Magic Cores of the Black Crow Beasts. With the Artifact Spirit as a cover, Jianchen was not afraid that his warrior's strength would be exposed, unless it was seen by the contestants.
In the next few days, Jianchen collected battle records while hunting Magical Beasts. He used the essence hidden in the blood of the Magical Beasts to help the White Tiger break through. In the blink of an eye, five days had passed. In these five days, more than a dozen Class 6 Magical Beasts had died at the hands of Jianchen. There were even more Class 5 and Class 4 Magical Beasts. Not only did he obtain quite a few Class 6 Magic Cores, but the sleeping White Tiger had also absorbed a large amount of essence, causing its entire body to emit a faint white light. This white light continued to grow as the White Tiger absorbed more essence.
However, some of the Class 6 Magical Beasts that Jianchen had killed had backers. Some were the descendants of Class 7 Magical Beasts, and some were the subordinates of Class 7 Magical Beasts. Their deaths made the Class 7 Magical Beasts furious. They let out earth-shattering roars that echoed throughout the entire artifact space, causing the contestants in the artifact space to discuss spiritedly. They were terrified. Only a few people who understood the artifact space very well were able to remain calm.
